They used to be action/detective oriented with some great sex scenes, now they are sex oriented with the occasional argument and the odd page of story beetween a chapter of sex scene.

I have actually questioned whether someone else is now writing them! the style is so different
The change in Hamilton's style maps to the change in her life. The older books were written while still married to her first husband. The newer books have been produced since she divorced and re-married, and husband two is reportedly a younger guy, seriously into kink.

I haven't followed the series, but I've seen reports that the latest are moving back toward the former style. Perhaps Hamilton is regaining her balance.
